    Pac has power, infact possibly more power than any of the top WW's right now including Mosley, going off his last 2 fights. He will get PW respect, he punches with fast combinations unlike Williams who throws a lot of punches but not in the way Pac does. Pac also has amazing footspeed to go in and out, the best in the sport currently. We know Pac can take a punch not like he will get KTFO by the first punch...also looking at how he outboxed DLH from the outside I think he can do the same to PW using lateral movements.

    Cotto has very good skills when he uses them...he can outbox PW from outside if he needs to. PW size and output may prove too much though and I dont think Cotto stops PW either. Reviewing this fight I pick PW...

    Most overrated???? Ironic u ask that q? The guy in your avatar has got that one clinched by a mile... and no, I don't think he'd beat Cotto... heck, he won't even beat Quintana in a rubbermatch, even HE knows that!!! Sergio knows it as well!!!:yep

    whatever the case is, he's as bad as it gets. i hear he's already making well over six figures for his fights.

    Pacquiao is'nt a boxer... he is good at fighting guys who stay in the pocket and slug....there is absolutely no way in hell he could deal with paul's output... there is zero chance pacman could win a slugfest with pw

    cotto's weaknesses

    - tires late
    - cannot deal with high volume
    - isnt "defensive"

    there is nothing cotto really has going for himself in this matchup....

    lol...pac isnt a boxer? What do you think he did against ODLH? The guy beffudled him with footspeed and angles, staying on the outside. You can claim DLH was weight drained all you like but even so, right from the bell, his jab couldnt even touch him. Pac is a great boxer, a very underrated one at that.

    paul williams is the most hyped... a win over margarito and shot winky and now his top 10 p4p material..the guy got schooled by quintana and martinez had him on the run.. and for some to think he will beat floyd is a complete joke.

    also gamboa is a hypejob and andre ward

    he isnt a slick fighter in the way that quintana or martinez is... and even if he was... he is too little for paul.... as much as i like paul ill admit when a fighter has his #..... pacquiao certainely wouldnt

    and for any of you pavlik fans who come in here and quote me on some bull****... if paul can take pavlik's power.... pavlik will be done

    Bernard Hopkins, he was one of the great middleweights, but now he is far from being one of the best fighters in the world.

    HBO, and Ring Magazine bandgwagon way too much.

    i am by no means a pavlik fan. i think he's a paper champion, but if sergio martinez can rock williams, then i don't like what might happen if pavlik checks pw's chin.

    u think the fact that golden boy owns ring magazine has anything to do with b-hops being ranked so high?

    there it is .. i have been waiting..u always bring pavlik up and try to make williams look good...give it up already.. paul will never be able to take pavs power, and i am not just saying that because i like pav.. i wish they would fight already so we can get rid of your ass.
